Gratitude Day 5 – Never Been Out of Job!

I’ve been working since 1999 in Legal firm and after five years I entered the Insurance sector. Unfortunately, due to recession and all that, I was retrenched in 2007 from the insurance sector. Lucky for me, I was never out of job. Next I entered the corporate world where I learned a lots of things/duties that involved $$. Three years ago I quitted as I felt that its time for me to slow down, so I joined the Non-Government Organisation (NGO) where I worked on part time basis. I’m glad I’ve make the right decision. Working part time give me more time to spent with my family and working with an NGO, my time is very flexible. I like what I do now, getting involve community, doing charity, attending many exhibition and function, meeting new people locally and internationally and lots more.

There’re so many advantages working with an NGO. NGO is a non-governmental organization that is driven and task-oriented by individuals with one common interest. It’s usually structured around specific issues like health, human rights or environment, in my organisation’s case, we involved with providing electricity for rural area community. Unlike corporate world which involved a lot of $$, NGO have the capability of communicating at all levels. Means that they can easily interact with the local people and relay their messages to top levels of the government. As a non-profit organizations, various projects can be achieved without having to use the government money. In our case we partner with another NGO from Portland, USA in providing the rural area electricity through Micro-hydro system.

Okay, enough talking about NGO, what I really wanted to say here is that I’m so glad and blessed that I’ve never been out of job, and working with an NGO doing charity and all that are truly blessing in disguised. I got the chance to meet a lot of people, learn new things and meet many friends along the way.

It's enough to indulge and to be selfish but true happiness is really when you start giving back. Adrian Grenier
